以賽亞書 33
1 禍哉！你這毀滅人的， 自己倒不被毀滅； 行事詭詐的， 人倒不以詭詐待你。 你毀滅罷休了， 自己必被毀滅； 你行完了詭詐， 人必以詭詐待你。
Alas! thou plunderer when, thou, hadst not been plundered, And thou traitor when they had not betrayed thee: When thou hast ceased plundering, thou shalt be plundered, When thou hast left off betraying, they shall betray thee.
2 耶和華啊，求你施恩於我們； 我們等候你。 求你每早晨作我們的膀臂， 遭難的時候為我們的拯救。
O Yahweh! shew us favour, —For thee, have we waited, —Be thou their arm every morning, Yea our salvation in the time of distress.
3 喧嚷的響聲一發，眾民奔逃； 你一興起，列國四散。
At the noise of a tumult, the peoples retreated, —When thou didst lift thyself up, nations were scattered.
4 你們所擄的必被斂盡， 好像螞蚱吃盡禾稼。 人要蹦在其上，好像蝗蟲一樣。
Then shall your spoil be gathered as the gathering of the caterpillar, —As the swift running of locusts, is he about to run upon them.
5 耶和華被尊崇，因他居在高處； 他以公平公義充滿錫安。
Exalted is Yahweh, for he inhabiteth a height, —He hath filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
6 你一生一世必得安穩－ 有豐盛的救恩， 並智慧和知識； 你以敬畏耶和華為至寶。
So shall a wealth of deliverances, wisdom and knowledge, become the stability of thy times, —the reverence of Yahweh, the same is his treasure.
7 看哪，他們的豪傑在外頭哀號； 求和的使臣痛痛哭泣。
Lo! their heroes, have cried out openly, —the messengers of peace, in bitterness, continue weeping [they say]:
8 大路荒涼，行人止息； 敵人背約， 藐視城邑， 不顧人民。
The highways are deserted, The passer-by on the path, hath ceased, —He hath broken covenant, He hath despised cities, He hath made no account of men.
9 地上悲哀衰殘； 黎巴嫩羞愧枯乾； 沙崙像曠野； 巴珊和迦密的樹林凋殘。
The land mourneth, languisheth, Lebanon, displayeth shame, is withered, —Sharon, hath become, as the waste plain, And Bashan and Carmel are shaking off their leaves.
10 耶和華說： 現在我要起來； 我要興起； 我要勃然而興。
Now, will I arise, Saith Yahweh, Now, will I lift myself up, Now, will I be exalted!
11 你們要懷的是糠詷， 要生的是碎詡； 你們的氣就是吞滅自己的火。
Ye shall conceive chaff Ye shall bring forth stubble, —Your own breath, like fire, shall devour you.
12 列邦必像已燒的石灰， 像已割的荊棘在火中焚燒。
So shall peoples, become, as the burnings of lime, —As thorns lopped off, with fire, shall they be burned.
13 你們遠方的人當聽我所行的； 你們近處的人當承認我的大能。
Hear—ye that are far off. what I have done, And know—ye that are near my might:
14 錫安中的罪人都懼怕； 不敬虔的人被戰兢抓住。 我們中間誰能與吞滅的火同住？ 我們中間誰能與永火同住呢？
Terror-stricken in Zion, —are sinners, Shuddering hath seized the impious, —Who among us can sojourn with a fire that devoureth? Who among us can sojourn with burnings age-abiding?
15 行事公義、說話正直、 憎惡欺壓的財利、 擺手不受賄賂、 塞耳不聽流血的話， 閉眼不看邪惡事的，
He that walketh righteously, And speaketh uprightly, —He that refuseth the gain of exactions That shaketh his hands free from holding a bribe, That stoppeth his ear from hearkening to deeds of blood, And shutteth his eyes from giving countenance to wrong,
16 他必居高處； 他的保障是磐石的堅壘； 他的糧必不缺乏； 他的水必不斷絕。
He, the heights, shall inhabit, A stronghold of crags, shall be his refuge, —His bread, hath been delivered, His waters, have been made sure,
17 你的眼必見王的榮美， 必見遼闊之地。
Of a king, in his beauty, shall thine eyes have vision: They shall see a land that stretcheth afar.
18 你的心必思想那驚嚇的事， 自問說：記數目的在哪裏呢？ 平貢銀的在哪裏呢？ 數戍樓的在哪裏呢？
Thy heart, may murmur in terror, —Where is the scribe? Where—the receiver? Where—he that maketh a list of the towers?
19 你必不見那強暴的民， 就是說話深奧，你不能明白， 言語呢喃，你不能懂得的。
The fierce people, shalt thou not see, —The people of too deep a lip to be understood, of too barbarous a tongue for thee to comprehend.
20 你要看錫安－我們守聖節的城！ 你的眼必見耶路撒冷為安靜的居所， 為不挪移的帳幕， 橛子永不拔出， 繩索一根也不折斷。
Look thou on Zion, the city of our appointed feast, —Thine own eyes, shall see Jerusalem—A home of comfort A tent which shall not be packed up—Whose pins shall not be pulled out, for ever, And none of, whose cords, shall be broken.
21 在那裏，耶和華必顯威嚴與我們同在， 當作江河寬闊之地； 其中必沒有盪槳搖櫓的船來往， 也沒有威武的船經過。
But, there shall Yahweh be our majestic one, A place of rivers—streams broad on both hands, Wherein shall go no galley with oars, Neither shall majestic ship traverse it;
22 因為，耶和華是審判我們的； 耶和華是給我們設律法的； 耶和華是我們的王； 他必拯救我們。
For, Yahweh is our judge, Yahweh, is our lawgiver, —Yahweh, is our king, He will save us!
23 你的繩索鬆開： 不能栽穩桅杆， 也不能揚起篷來。 那時許多擄來的物被分了； 瘸腿的把掠物奪去了。
Loosed are thy ropes, —They cannot strengthen the socket of their mast They have not unfurled a sail Now, can be apportioned spoil, in abundance, The lame, have captured prey!
24 城內居民必不說：我病了； 其中居住的百姓，罪孽都赦免了。
Neither shall the inhabitant say. I am sick, —the people who dwell therein, have been forgiven iniquity.
